Hi Everyone,
Just bought a new camper van built on a 2021 Ram Promaster 2500 high roof. It has the stock 24 gallon gas tank. It looks like ther is a 40 gallon gas tank available. I am trying to decide if it is worth installing the 40 gallon or not. We are headed on a summer around the country trip and so this would be something to do now. The van lists 16 to 18 MPG. I have no idea what I will really get, but assuming 16 MPG then the 24 gallon tank would be good for 384 miles which seems like it is a bit short. We would clearly gas up on every notable driving day.
The 40 gallon tank would be good for 640 miles which seems much more convenient.
Any thoughts on 24 gallons versus 40 gallons? What is the the norm?
